WGA Strike and Upfronts: Updates and Wins from Day 16 Picket Lines.
The writers' strike has affected the upfronts presentations in New York City, with picket lines and celebrities crossing them. The solidarity between unions is breaking down, and the Peabody Awards have canceled themselves. Late-night hosts have shown support for the strike by growing beards, and Netflix canceled its live upfronts presentation. NBC's upfront presentation went ahead without its biggest stars, and almost every celeb who appeared did so in a prestrike recording.
